Aarfy_Aardvark 38 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Simples. Derby, Blipswich, Wolves, Brentford, or an 19-0 hammering thus rendering the playoffs invalid and causing a lot of Muff bandwagoners to lick the salty tears of Eddie Howe. Link to post Share on other sites
Essuuaitch 330 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 voted for Ipswich but reasonably ok with anyone except Derby Link to post Share on other sites
OldManGravz 1,350 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'd quite happily take any of them. We've done the double over them all except Ipswich this season, and even them we'd have beaten on aggregate if the scores from league games were used Link to post Share on other sites
Aarfy_Aardvark 38 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 We didn't beat Wolves at Molineux. I'm worried about facing them because they have some very good players. Link to post Share on other sites
OldManGravz 1,350 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Should have looked at the options before posting, thought it would just be Norwich, Derby and Ipswich haha. Whoops Link to post Share on other sites
pikerman 1,121 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Derby for me, we seem to have the hex on them and besides I have a soft spot for Ipswich. Link to post Share on other sites
2plus2 290 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I think we're marginal favourites against any of them. Would like to avoid Derby though, as despite their poor form, they still score a lot of goals. And Ipswich too, given they have the league's top scorer, and a friend of mine supports them (not sure I want that additional tension). Would really fancy our chances against Wolves and especially Brentford. Not that we're likely to roll over either though. They way the fixtures are lined up, I've got a sneaky feeling we'll end up with Brentford. Ipswich are all about their home form and I think Rhodes might have a say at Ewood Park. Boro 2-1 Brighton. Blackburn 2-1 Ipswich. Brentford 2-0 Wigan. Derby 3-1 Reading. Norwich 3-1 Fulham. Wolves 3-1 Millwall. Watford 3-1 Wednesday. Charlton 1-2 Bournemouth. Watford 91 Bournemouth 90 -------------------- Boro 87 Norwich 86 Derby 80 Brentford 78 [+18, 77 goals] -------------------- Ipswich 78 [+18, 71 goals] Wolves 78 [+14] Link to post Share on other sites
Ever_the_optimist 41 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Brentford for me - would like to avoid Derby too Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,490 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I said from a while back Derby are the team i want to avoid. On paper they have some strikeforce and if Bent is fit he loves a goal against us. Plus they have world class talents like Hughes and fans that add points and goals to their team. Although the 2nd part is based on what Derby fans told me. Link to post Share on other sites

"KM" 1,656 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'm not bothered who we get, we'll have to beat 2 of them if we want to go up so bring it on! I said before that we will have a massive advantage with the second leg being at home. I'm confident we will do it. Link to post Share on other sites
p_mards 1,365 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'd probably prefer to avoid Derby as at their best they're probably better than the other teams so have more potential to cause us problems than other teams. We have beat them hope and away though which much be a big psychological advantage for us. It's difficult to pick one team as one as the best to play though. Ipswich are solid but have less potential to pull out something spectacular in the play offs and I would fancy our chances in the second home leg to put a few goals past them. Brentford have far more vulnerability about them, and also Wolves but their counter attacking threat is a huge threat. I hope Norwich can be knocked out in the semi-final as they are better than the other teams in the play offs. Link to post Share on other sites
thomas 501 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 19 nil would do very nicely to build confidence but being more realistic i want either derby or brentford not ipswich please. Link to post Share on other sites
Barticus 29 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Ipswich away has never been a happy hunting ground and if they do come to the Riverside and park the bus to hold onto a lead, we don't have a good track record of breaking teams down, so for me anyone but Ipswich Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmy 140 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 For me, Brentford would be ideal having done the double with a 5-0 aggregate this season. I too would like to avoid Ipswich, our record at Portman road isn't pretty, and there's something about Derby where we seem to have the edge. Having the second leg at the Riverside is a huge advantage as our home form has been outstanding. Already looking forward to the atmosphere, let's hope the crown can get behind the boys and send us to Wembley!!! Link to post Share on other sites
